Let’s explore what happens to the earth that we see during the change in seasons. We know what is happening to the weather, but what is happening to the plants and animals? Program will include fall outdoor activities, an art project, and meeting APEC animals! Join us as we explore the question, what does it mean to be alive? Each session will include experiments with the help of live animals or plants. Students will have special access to the APEC greenhouse, live animals, and or patch of the wild. Limited to 8 participants. Registration required.

QBG's ever-popular Pumpkin Patch is back to bring you the quintessential fall family experience. Patch activities include harvest-themed photo opportunities, pumpkin decorating, crafts, and botanical demonstrations. Face painting is available for an additional fee.
